Celebrating Small Business

The first week of May is Small Business Week, but at Bank of the Valley we celebrate our Small Business partners every day of the year. Nationally, small businesses have generated 12.9 million net new jobs over the past 25 years, accounting for two out of every three jobs added to the economy. 

Bank of the Valley understands the unique needs of small businesses and the importance of ready access to financial resources as they expand and evolve to meet the needs of the communities they serve. We’re invested in the success of our local small businesses and stand ready and willing to help because we know when small businesses flourish, everyone prospers.

Small businesses comprise 99.9 percent of all firms and account for 44 percent of U.S. economic activity. When it comes to their financing needs, they most often turn to community banks, which fund more than 60 percent of all small business loans under $1 million. In fact, small businesses consistently rank community banks as their lender of choice, according to a series of studies from the Federal Reserve Banks.                                                            

We would love the opportunity to help you see everyone’s small business become a huge success – contact us today!
